N Series Pin Tumbler Deadbolt For Door Security

N Series pin tumbler deadbolt is a door lock from Olympus Lock, Inc. that uses the N Series keyway, so it matches the same key system used by other N Series locks in a project where keyed-alike control is important. The lock uses a solid brass pin tumbler cylinder, which provides a precise key interface for consistent operation across day-to-day locking and unlocking in commercial or shop environments. The body is zinc die cast, giving the lock a rigid housing that supports the cylinder and internal components during repeated use on the door. This model is keyed to KA107, which means multiple locks using KA107 can be operated with the same key to simplify access control for installers and facility teams. The oil rubbed bronze finish provides a specific dark bronze appearance that helps this deadbolt match doors and hardware using a similar 10B-style finish.

Deadbolt Details That Support Daily Use

• The keying can be matched with other N Series locks, so installers can set up groups of doors that operate on common keys while still using the same N Series keyway across the job.
• The deadbolt is easily rekeyable via a set screw cylinder release mechanism, letting locksmiths or maintenance staff change cylinders efficiently without replacing the entire lock body during rekey work.
• The lock passed ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, so the mechanism has been tested to a recognized Grade 1 standard that supports demanding commercial or high-use door locations.
• The standard function has the key removable in locked or unlocked position and is non-handed, giving flexibility to operate from either side orientation and to remove the key after locking or unlocking according to the door plan.
• The N Series keyway is equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, so shops already using those systems can coordinate keying patterns while staying within the N Series framework.

Door Lock Cylinder Fit And Keying Setup

The cylinder length options of 15/16 inch, 1-3/8 inch or 1-5/8 inch give multiple depth choices, so installers can match the cylinder projection to different door thicknesses or hardware stacks without improvising spacers. The 7/8 inch barrel diameter provides a defined bore size, helping machining or drilling operations prepare consistent holes for the cylinder across multiple doors. Stock keying is KD/KA 4 pin standard, which supports either keyed different or keyed alike setups from stock, allowing the project design to choose individualized doors or shared-key groups. Stock KA numbers 101, 103, 107 and 915 define common keyed-alike groups, so a shop can organize doors by these key numbers for straightforward key management across multiple lock installations.

Using This Olympus Deadbolt In Real Projects

Where This N Series Deadbolt Is Applied

This deadbolt belongs to the Deadbolt Locks category and is designed as a door lock, so it fits projects where a separate deadbolt is needed alongside other latch hardware on the door leaf. The zinc die cast body supports use on doors that see frequent operation, because the rigid casting stabilizes the cylinder and reduces flex in the mounting area when the bolt is operated. The oil rubbed bronze finish lets the deadbolt visually coordinate with other oil rubbed bronze hardware on the same opening, helping maintain a consistent appearance on exposed faces in finished interiors. Because the keyway is N Series and equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, it can be integrated into existing N Series key hierarchies in facilities already standardized on that platform for doors and locks.

How Keying And Construction Support Consistency

The solid brass pin tumbler cylinder provides a stable, machinable material for the key pins and plug, which supports smooth key insertion and turning when multiple users operate the lock throughout the day. The rekeyable design using a set screw cylinder release mechanism means the cylinder can be changed while keeping the same zinc die cast body in the door, so keying changes can be performed while the door hardware layout remains intact. The standard function with key removable in locked or unlocked position allows staff to choose whether to retain the key in the cylinder during operation, which can help organize key control patterns in different areas. Non-handed construction means the same deadbolt can be used on either hand of door without separate left- or right-hand versions, simplifying inventory and replacement work. Masterkeyed at 5 pin standard, with grand masterkeyed available, this N Series system supports tiered key structures, helping facilities assign different access levels while still relying on the same deadbolt platform.
